"There's never been such a great source of amazing tips and information," said David Fox, founder and CEO of OBTO Tech, which is presenting the event. "Our event will appeal to both new and veteran developers."

Each of the 60 Flash developers will present a 60-second tip, creating one of the first "central hubs" for critical information on how to make a great Flash game, Fox
explained.
